We love the 'After' photos, but the 'Middle' is where the hard work happens. We take pride in the slow, steady prep work that most people never see—because we believe your furniture deserves a finish that’s built to last, not just look good for a day.

Masking Phase: Postmodern Tubular Iron Barstools (c. 1990)
Refinishing mixed-media pieces requires a bit of extra care, and this masking phase is where our attention to detail really shines. We take the time to meticulously wrap and protect every inch of the original upholstery with surgical precision. It’s a patient process, but it’s the only way to guarantee a factory-smooth finish on the metal frames while keeping the fabric absolutely pristine. We believe the steps you don't see are just as important as the ones you do.

Victorian "Dome-Top" Steamer Trunk (c. 1890)
Full restoration of oak slats and embossed tin. Polished original brass hardware and stabilized the curved wood frame.

The Raw Wood Phase: Mid-20th Century French Provincial Buffet
This stage represents the most critical phase of the restoration, and it’s truly what sets our work apart. We spend a significant amount of time hand-stripping and sanding to reveal and preserve those delicate carvings and original edges. It’s a slow, steady process, but it’s the only way to ensure the details stay crisp and clean before we move on to the new finish.
